OpenAI has been taken to court by Florida Republican Attorney General James Uthmeier, claiming that the AI lab released an unsafe product and misled the public about safety risks associated with its LLM chatbot, ChatGPT.
According to POLITICO, this is the first time a state has sued the company and Altman, and Uthmeier "hopes and expects" other states will follow. The Department of Legal Affairs noted in the complaint that OpenAI grew from a $17 billion valuation to over $850 billion in less than four years.
